A freshly baked tray of cinnamon rolls, redolent of spice and sugar and yeast, turned gold by the heat that still warms the kitchen.

Can't you just smell 'em? Bet you can't wait to taste them, either.

We combed through the Los Angeles Times Test Kitchen's recipe collection for some of our favorite cinnamon-infused dishes. We found cinnamon rolls, of course, but we didn't stop there. We've got cinnamon-scented pancakes, tarts, cakes, breads and much more.

So how about this for a cinnamon challenge: Flip through our photo gallery, above, and try to resist.
